According to the Secretary of State, the company was founded on March 3rd of this year. It doesn’t have legal authorization from the Chancellor of the Ohio Department of Education to operate in this state. The Chancellor can ask Attorney General Dave Yost to get an injunction to shut them down in short order if they enroll anyone.

The whole thing feels either like something is wrong or it is a sting by ICE. I remember them running one outside Detroit in the past couple years.

I’m very curious how they’re getting around section 1713.02 of the Ohio Revised Code as seen at https://codes.ohio.gov/ohio-revised-code/section-1713.02

They’re not on the Ohio Department of Higher Education’s authorized list. They make no mention on their website of even seeking authorization. They’re not clearly identifying themselves as a “Bible College” to take advantage of that loophole.

It is comforting that people are at least thinking about this potential situation.

As Glenn Hauser, Kim Andrew Elliott, and others have asked it comes down to the big question of what regs exactly authorize this. There really isn’t any ambiguity in the relevant rules to sneak this in under.

I’ve listened to a few shortwave industry experts hammer out the issues with this. Despite the novelty of the technical application this is an end run around the Commission’s rules. As there are other operators carrying out such data transmissions licensed under the Experimental Radio Service the major question is what exactly has changed in the rules to suddenly make this permissible.

Thank you smkellat. You get the point. I'm the author of the article linked in this post (and thank you HN for blowing us up today).

The ideas of the World Federalist Movement from the 1930s are being rediscovered! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Federalist_Movement

Well, that does help explain why one of the local high schools had their livestream abruptly terminate 22 times when they tried to stream their band’s senior night concert. It does seem to be a clear TOS violation by the school even though the school was trying to work within Ohio coronavirus guidelines. I guess the effort to build something using OpenBroadcaster has increased urgency now.

ikiwiki has been around for over a decade. You can even pay for a hosted version of it at branchable. It is kinda sad how much people overlook it.

For people who are too lazy to search for Ikiwiki:

> Ikiwiki is a wiki compiler. It converts wiki pages into HTML pages suitable for publishing on a website. Ikiwiki stores pages and history in a revision control system such as Subversion or Git. There are many other features, including support for blogging and podcasting, as well as a large array of plugins.

That leaves the question of who you are and why your opinion matters then. You could be a rogue GPT-3 experiment for all any of us know.

At least I’m not out there writing condescending blog posts where I bloviate about cities ceasing to exist. Gimme a break.

Chromium was due to the absolute nightmarish amount of manpower on Canonical’s part it took to keep up packaging with releases. Copying Debian’s work wouldn’t have helped because they had and still have fewer resources than Canonical did to commit to packaging it.

LXD ships a private version of a library as it has changes not accepted by upstream. It pretty much needs to be a snap as it doesn’t fit into the realm of .deb packaging due to that.

Two fits “some”. Off the top of my head I cannot recall anything else that has a .deb that diverts to snap. More might come in the future perhaps. 2020 has not been the kindest of years to bookmakers in Vegas and elsewhere.
